IIM Lucknow introduces ten-month CEO Programme blending online curriculum and campus immersion for future ready executives.

In a world where business leadership is being reshaped by digital disruption, sustainability imperatives and shifting consumer demands, IIM Lucknow has stepped up by launching the latest cohort of its Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Programme. Scheduled to begin on 30 December 2025, this 10-month programme combines live online sessions with a short in-person campus immersion to prepare seasoned professionals for today’s complex operating environment. 

The programme positions the modern CEO not just as a functional manager, but as a visionary change-agent someone who can anticipate global trends, steer organisational culture, and embed innovation and sustainability into the core business. According to the institute, participants will gain modules in strategic thinking, financial acumen, cross-functional leadership, global market dynamics and transformation management. 

What sets this offering apart is its dual delivery mode: 100 % live online lectures from IIM Lucknow faculty and industry practitioners, and a face-to-face immersion experience. Graduates become part of the IIM Lucknow Executive Education alumni network and work on a capstone project tailored to real-world business challenges. In its previous four cohorts, the programme has empowered over 200 senior professionals to deepen their leadership impact. 

For mid- to senior-level professionals aspiring to the C-suite, this programme offers a timely intervention. In India’s current business climate marked by rapid digital adoption, evolving consumer behaviour, and growing focus on governance and sustainability the demand for holistic leadership has never been stronger. 

By partnering with Emeritus, IIM Lucknow is also leveraging modern pedagogy and global outreach to deliver this programme. With a fee of ₹6.15 lakh (+ GST), the investment is significant but the potential returns in terms of capability building and network expansion make it an option worth exploring for ambitious executives. 

In short, the CEO Programme at IIM Lucknow is designed for this era’s leader: someone ready to embrace ambiguity, inspire change and build organisations that thrive in transformation rather than being transformed by it.
